Philly's Cayetana, who we profiled back in November, are finally ready to release their debut LP, Nervous Like Me, on August 26 via Tiny Engines. It includes the single "Hot Dad Calendar" from earlier this year, as well as the brand new single, "Serious Things Are Stupid." The new song opens with just singer Augusta Koch and her guitar, sounding folky but covered in indie rock distortion. Soon though, the band comes crashing in hard with the urgency of a group who want to make an impression on you during the first minute of their debut album. And so far, it's working. Check out the song (via Noisey), with the album artwork and tracklist, below.

Andrew, what bothers a lot of people in your reviews (me included), is your constantly positive and by-now-predictable attitude to everything. It's like you're trying to hype up every band you write about. Critical thinking should go beyond "urgency of a group who want to make an impression on you during the first minute of their debut album". Try to add more nuance about things you did not like or that in your opinion could be improved.

Or if you're friends with the band, just don't say anything and keep it neutral, instead of singing the same praises in each post about every generic band.
